Yam, from the
Canaanite word Yam, meaning "Sea", is one name of the
Ugaritic god of Rivers and Sea. Also titled Judge
Nahar ("Judge River"), he is also one of the 'ilhm (
Elohim) or sons of
El, the name given to the
Levantine pantheon. Others dispute the existence of the alternative names, claiming it is a mistranslation of a damaged tablet. Despite linguistic overlap, theologically this god is not a part of the later subregional monotheistic theology, but rather is part of a broader and archaic Levantine
polytheism. The name Yam means "sea" and he is also called Nahar meaning "river".
